This Toot Your Horn Tuesday is going to be dedicated to the decluttering of my life. Yes, that's right. My life. I am in the process of trying to simplify my life, reorganize it, and make it a little more sensible. For someone like me, that involves quite a bit of sorting, organizing, tossing out/getting rid of, and more organizing. It's something I've wanted to do for quite some time, but never got around to it. Now that I don't have a job, I have the time.
On my list:
1. The files in and on my desk.
2. My desk.
3. The bin in my closet.
4. My closet. (See where this is going?)
5. My shoes. (Yes, I do have that many.)
6. Selling books.
7. Selling beanie babies. (I do still have them.)
I think that's all that is on my list. At least, I really hope so. I'm sure I'll find more items to add as I go along and try to clear up and declutter my room and my life. However, so far I have gotten my files organized (for the most part). I still have a bit to do there, but not much. My actual desk is about as organized as it's going get. Actually, it's an ongoing process as my desk tends to be the place where I dump everything. Don't know what to do with it, desk. Needs to be put away at some point, desk. Purse, desk. Receipts, desk. Miscellanious papers, pens, chapstick, etc., desk. You get the picture. Strangely enough though, I know exactly where everything is.
As for the rest of my list, I'm currently working on selling the beanie babies and the books, trying to find out what they're worth and what I can actually sell them for. (Anyone here interested? The books are Calvin and Hobbes collections, and the beanie babies are assorted. Ask if interested.) The bin, closet, and shoes are on the waiting list. In the meantime though, I'm actually getting things done and it feels great. Yay me!

Lol! I totally know what you mean. I always have lists and lists of things that need to get, like cleaning my room for example, but I never have a chance to do it. I guess there is something good about not working, you get to do all of the things you want to do, but can't while you're working. I think our desks should be friends because I put everything on mine!
